One of our activities at the Faith and Writing workshop I attended last week was writing hymns. This was my first attempt, and I must say turned out better than subsequent endeavors.
Lord, We Gather at Your Table
To the tune of "Hark the Voice of Jesus Crying" Lutheran Service Book 826
Lord, we gather at your table
Here you call us to your feast
Lord, your Holy Spirit guides us
Bringing all, the great and least
Everyone has sinned against you
Everyone has disobeyed
Still you let us join your supper
Taking all our guilt away
Christ died out on Calvary's mountain
So we all might come to heaven
We are joined into his dying
Cup of wine and bread unleaven
Thank you, Christ, for coming to us
We receive your loving grace
Now we all can come before you
And behold your righteous face
